On the other side.
William returns to Virginia with agent Cecil. Cecil knew that William was angry and disappointed because his love clapped one hand. Cecil tried to mediate.
"William, where are we going?" cecil asked curiously because William wanted to take him back to the CIA office.
"I want to be re-assigned as an official agent" replied William quickly.
"Why? We see your movement is quite good" said Cecil judging.
"I want to report everything I know to Rika" replied William again.
"Sorry, Will. Rika is no longer active in the CIA. He is retired" said Cecil and his speech surprised him.
CITTTS!
William braked his car and made it stop in the middle of the road in surprise.
Cecil then asked William to marginalize his vehicle so as not to block the road. William obeyed him and now he stared at Cecil sharply.
"Rika's been retired since you joined the special forces. Sorry I just told you this. When you decided to cross, Rika had retired only she asked for a break from wanting to make sure you chose the right path. However, his efforts were in vain, you still pursue Sia," Cecil added.
William was stunned and looked like he was losing. He didn't know if Rika was lying to him.
"Where is he now?" william looked sad.
"Montana."
William soon forgets his original goal of returning to the CIA. She wants to meet Rika who she has considered a mother since the death of her parents.
Cecil accompanied because he saw William who was still down.
William drove his car to Missoula, one of Montana's cities still overgrown with trees, rivers and mountains.
A great place to enjoy retirement from the bustle of the metropolis and the hectic work that Rika had to work for decades at the CIA.
the 32-hour drive certainly made Cecil tired. William took the time to take Cecil to rest at the hotel.
Cecil does not know if William is working with Axton and the young agent has no intention to tell this to Cecil or Rika later. He will keep his mission alone.
They stopped in Wisconsin and rented two rooms at a hostel for an overnight stay.
They will continue the journey tomorrow after resting and cleaning themselves. William invites Cecil to eat together at a bar near the hostel.
"Aren't you ashamed, taking a grandmother to a bar with young children?" ledek Cecil while eating a burrito.
"I haven't been to a bar in a long time. Although this is a roadside bar, but the atmosphere is good," replied William while sipping a beer glass filled with foam on the top.
Cecil only sighed as he finished the meal quietly.
"After meeting Rika, what's your next plan, Will?" ask Rika curious.
"You're retired, but why are you still struggling in this world, Cecil? Are you unsaturated?" asked William astonished.
"Workaholics. Maybe that's why I'm not married and have children, just like Rika. We spend time working, serving the country until we both forget the purpose of a relationship between people of the opposite sex. When we were already dusk, we only realized it and it was too late. I'm so jealous of my best friend Rose Marlena. He married and had children. Although in the end he died, but he was happy because he had a child who was not his biological child, but so loving to him. That's how Rika feels when she's with you, Will," said Cecil, who has consumed his burrito voraciously.
"Rose Marlena, the board member? Isn't ... he's still alive and a senior board member? When did he die? Is there any new data from the mafia that the CIA hasn't told me since I left for duty?" asked William with a frown.
Cecil was silent for a moment. He forgot to keep it a secret about the passing of Rose Marlena and William Charles.
Cecil gulped and immediately gulped his beer in half. William locks his eyes on a Cecil, he suspects.
"CIA doesn't know yet? You're hiding this from them? Did you make a deal on those mobsters without the CIA's knowledge?" ask William to guess.
Cecil. He looked around to make sure no one was listening. He could not dodge anymore, Cecil nodded.
William was surprised by Cecil's unsuspecting confession. He directly propped up his right elbow on the table with his right hand closing his mouth. He looked at Cecil closely.
"So actually, Rose Marlena is gone? Is he dead? That's how you mean?" william's question confirmed his guess.
Cecil nodded in silence.
"Tell me. Don't lie to me" William insisted.
Cecil sighed and finally told the chronology of why he and Rika lied to the CIA for years about the death of Rose Marlena.
William listened seriously to Cecil's story. He did not expect that Cecil used to be friends with Rose Marlena while still on duty even though they were different agencies.
He also did not expect, the mafia even sacrificed his life to help Cecil.
Rika who was also forgiven her life by Vesper at that time made William more confused by this, he was dizzy instantly.
"I know Antony Boleslav, Sia's stepfather now. I know Axton too. I've faced him one-on-one. The mafia, they may be ruthless and demon-hearted, but trust William. They committed a crime for a reason. They're respectable mafia even though they're criminals. They're different from the gang of delinquents on the streets like you hear in the news. Even their level is above Rio and Julius Adam, the mafia you've dealt with before" Cecil said.
William was silent for a moment trying to compare as he worked with Rio, Axton and Rahul.
They were different, but still the behavior of the three people was strange unlike normal people.
"Cecil, have you ever heard of The Circle?" william asked to switch the conversation.
However, William's question just now had Cecil shocked to death in the crowd.
He then asked William to leave the bar immediately and took him back to the hostel. William was confused, but in the end he complied because Cecil glared at him sharply.
William saw Cecil as if on alert looking to the right and to the left making sure they were not followed.
Cecil invites William into his room and locks the door and closes the window curtain. William was confused and sat on the sofa near the television set against the wall of the room.
"Do you know where that name is?" ask Cecil while removing the coat and putting the wallet on the mattress.
"Amm .. that ...."
"Axton told you?" ask Cecil to guess.
William gulped. He briefly tried to find an alibi.
"Not, of their own," replied William starting his play.
"What do you mean by themselves? You met with the cabal?"
"Yes. I met them when I lost against Vesper's son Arjuna. I drove down the beach to get back to the Axton mansion to pick up my car, but I was intercepted by The Circle. They invited me to join. That's where I found out about The Circle," said William began to tell a story that this time was true.
"Then?" ask Cecil who is now closer to William and look at him sharply.
"I didn't know the group and I ran away from them. I accidentally met Rahul one of the children of the 13 Demon Heads, King Khisna and instead made me one of his bodyguards" William added.
Cecil didn't expect it to be this complicated. He seemed to think and William looked at him carefully.
"Listen William, this is a secret. I'll tell you what I know about The Circle and I want you to destroy them, too" Cecil said, staring intently at William.
William was surprised that it turned out that the CIA also wanted The Circle to be obliterated, just like Axton's request of the 13th Demon Heads.
"It used to be The Circle was the darkest part of the military. But we can control them. The Circle becomes a military hitman like a mercenary. We pay them and facilitate the whole mission to eliminate the mafia. It's just, there was a rebellion and in the end The Circle betrayed us. At first we thought we were the ones using them, but in reality we were being used instead. It's a shame" said Cecil, who admitted the stupidity of the joint military that recruited The Circle.
William listened seriously to Cecil's words that really surprised him.
"And yeah, that's it. The Circle instead ignored the mission and disappeared from our watch. We feel that if the existence of The Circle is revealed to the public, it will cause unrest in the world. They were criminals even though their leader was a former military, just like the members of the 13 Demon Heads. Lucifer names the leader of The Circle. However, he was dead and now his throne fell on 8 Mens. 8 strongest men with the name of the D which means, D, 8 children of Lucifer Flame who have a name with the first letter D and surnamed Flame," added Cecil at length who began to dizzy considering this.
"Now, The Circle is a military fugitive just like the 13 Demon Heads?" ask William to make sure.
"Yes" replied Cecil firmly.
Everything was clear to William. Sia who was shot at that time made William sure if the action of The Circle who wanted to destroy the 13 Demon Heads.
He was assigned by the CIA to assassinate council members, especially a man named Antony Boleslav.
It's just that according to William's thinking, from this side the 13 Demon Heads council members were cornered because they were attacked by two parties at once, The Circle and the military.
William thinks that if the 13 Demon Heads kingdom collapses, the last war will be between The Circle and the military.
However, if it happens it is not a peace that will be created even a continuing catastrophe because he has never felt life among the mafia.
William knows how they solve these problems.
William again remembered Sia lover who was still loved by him although it could not be denied if he was still hurt by it.
However, William is worried if Sia is targeted and he is in danger given The Circle's background as a combination of military and mafia.
